I looked into the bosch 13127 and it appears to be a downstream sensor. I'm not sure you can use these in upstream applications since the voltage swing on downstream sensors are much lower.

....Anyways,Back to my own problems! I found Motorcraft sensors and they go for $150 each! The borg warner sensors are available through Kragen auto parts ,but the idiot working behind the counter couldn't cough up the right part numbers.

The bosch replacements are are 'Planar Wideband' sensors,and the ones I removed were Heated Thimble-type. I did notice during a scan that the output and frequency were much higher for the bosch units and is probably choking my PCM. Back to the OEM "Style" sensors for me! If anyone can find an online Borg warner parts catalog Please post the link!
